Installation and configuration worksheets
Before you install IBM Content Navigator or its prerequisite software, work with the system administrators of your web application servers, databases, and repository servers to collect the information that you need to be able to install and configure the servers in your environment.
Read the relevant topics for your environment in the planning section before you install or configure IBM Content Navigator to ensure that you are aware of any restrictions or limitations that might apply to your environment.
The worksheets that you must complete depend on the type of web application server that you are deploying IBM Content Navigator on and the types of repositories that you plan to connect to by using IBM Content Navigator.
Tip: You can use the worksheets in several ways:
- You can print the installation and configuration worksheets and fill them out. You can print the worksheets from the information center or from the PDF version of the documentation
- If you access the installation and configuration worksheets from the PDF version of the documentation, you can use editing software, such as Adobe Acrobat, to add your values to the worksheets.
